1 Month post-op...Phew!

Nov 15, 2009

   Well, Friday made it one whole month post-op, and boy it was a rough one. I am still having a bit of trouble with my fluids, not with being able to drink, just to remembering to drink. Well, eating too sometimes. Some days I can eat with no problem and other days I may not feel like eating, or a little scared to eat something new, and also not have a taste for what I gotten use too so far. I sometimes just want to eat the way I use to and just enjoy it (not the fatty stuff),just eat and not worry about eating too fast or eating  right after drinking. I don't feel like I really get to enjoy my food any more. I also need new food ideas, especially ones with protein. So, if any of you guys have some ideas, please share them with me.
    
    Vitamins... not a problem. Energy for me sucks on most days, but I am working on it. I don't see too much of a difference from getting the B12 shot. Maybe that's because I don't eat enough? I don't know. 
  
     However, when I got weighed in 3 weeks post-op I lost 37 lbs. My children are so very excited and happy for me. They as well as others say they really can see a difference. I see it a little but not all like that. Yet, I can fit more comfortably in my clothes. I also can see more of my lap, it really looks like my legs grew long or something...lol. Bra fits loose (width),but I still keep wearing then and will do so until I can't anymore. Pants are having a little rough time staying up, this time it is not from my butt being to wide. Oh, physically...I can climb to my 3rd floor bedroom without feeling exhausted. I am beginning to really chase after my toddler (when I have energy), she can't believe that one. So, I am seeing some changes but not too much when I look in the mirror other than the tummy shrinking. Oh, wait, I did get out of the shower and notice that I can now see....drum-roll please...My Shoulder Bone! 

      I have 2 more weeks doctor says before I can workout, so I really can't wait until then. I sure hope I have it together more than now with my eating,drinking and energy. Well, that's it for now OH fam. Till next time!
